Course Information for Medication Safety Essentials 3.0

Course Format
Medication errors and the safe use of medications continue to be a high priority in healthcare. With an evidenced based, inter-professional approach, this program reinforces the advocacy, responsibility and leadership role healthcare practitioners have in the medication administration process as a component of patient care. The MSE 3.0 course was developed to build a participant’s competency in medication safety following the completion of the prerequisite MSE 1.0 and 2.0 didactic webinars. You will find MSE 3.0 was developed utilizing a much different format than its predecessors – practice-based via case studies and associated PowerPoint presentations.

This course will require completion of a written evaluation and recommendations for improvement and development of a 15 to 20 slide presentation regarding two medication safety cases. Case write ups and power point presentations will be evaluated based on a rubric provided to the learner. A score of 80% or higher must be achieved on the first case/power point presentation before completing the second case and associated power point presentation. Formative feedback from the first case submission should be incorporated by the learner into the written recommendations and presentation of the second case. Each case will be graded within 14 days of submission.
